Peach and Roasted Red Pepper Bruschetta

This recipe comes from my dear co-worker Julia Cheri Otterbein who makes magic in the college kitchen!

Just one more famous and delicious recipe from there....

1 Red Pepper - roasted

2 Peaches – peeled and diced

1 Cup Tomatoes – diced and seeded

1 Clove Garlic – minced

1 Tbsp. Red Wine Vinegar

2 Tbsp. Chopped fresh basil (I also added a bit of chopped parsley)

Salt and fresh ground pepper

1 baguette, sliced on the diagonal

Roast the whole pepper on the grill or broiler, turning
often, until well blackened.Place in a
bowl and cover with plastic wrap.When
cooled – remove skin, stem and seeds.Finely chop and put into bowl.Add peaches, tomatoes, garlic, vinegar and basil.Season with salt and pepper to taste.Marinade for 30 minutes before serving or
cover and refrigerate for up to 8 hours.

Before serving, bring peach mixture to room temperature.

Lightly toast baguette slices on both sides – spoon peach
mixture on top of toasts, top with a shard or two of Parmigiano Reggiano cheese and enjoy!

Till next time .............. paging through Julia Childs book for some more inspiration!

P.S. My posts might be just a tad scarce over the next month or so .......... there's a wedding coming up in exactly one month from today. We are getting so excited.

One month away! Wonderful. That bruschetta looks delicious. My Dear made me a strawberry souffle from Julia Child's cookbook on one of our first dates. He had her set of blue and red books. They must be over 40 years old...Thinking about you and all the events leading up to the wedding!

About Me

I live with my husband of 40 some years on a 100 acre farm near Stratford, Ontario in Canada. We have been blessed with a beautiful daughter who just moved back from Alberta with her beloved husband and our most beautiful little granddaughter. They live a short 10 minutes away and we get to see them often now - it's amazing! I feel so blessed to have many dear friends, a loving family, a caring church family, and a cozy country home. I have so very much to be thankful for and hope I never take for granted all the riches in my life!
